Web server having issues 2020-08-27 #15

FYI,

I had to restart the Jekyll server that hosts https://wynton.ucsf.edu/hpc/ a few times today in order for it to pick up edits made. I'm not sure what's going on. This is the first time this ever happened. I'll keep an eye on it to see if it's a hiccup or something that needs to be fixed.

Yeah, there's something going on. Maybe some updated dependency that wreak havoc.

As a quick patch to make sure edits roll out, I've created a cronjob that restarts the Jekyll server every two hours. This will cause the website to go down for a few seconds. So, in the worst case, it'll take up to two hours before an edit goes live.

Of course, I'll still troubleshoot and fix this ...

It could be that newer versions of Ruby gems jekyll 3.9.0 and github-pages 207 were installed on 2020-08-27. Not sure how that happened but I suspect I ran the wrong make target while doing other things. I uninstalled those, and reinstalled:

gem install --user-install bundler jekyll:3.8.7 listen:3.1.5 liquid:4.0.0 github-pages:204

(as verified to work - documented in the README). Let's see if it works better now.

Jekyll has been running happily for three days now after the above downgrade. Closing.

Hmm.. I might have spoken too soon. Re-opening. I'm confused ...

Haven't experienced this problem since last year; closing
